(Ha'aretz) Zvi Bar'el - On Jan. 11, 2012, a motorcyclist attached explosive devices to Iranian "nuclear scientist" Mostafa Ahmadi-Roshan's car. Last week, Fereydoon Abbasi, the former head of Iran's Atomic Energy Organization, revealed that Roshan was not a nuclear scientist at all, but rather a merchant who dealt in importing components for the nuclear industry. In an interview with the Iranian publication Ramz Oboor, he said, "Roshan was a deputy for trade affairs at the Kala Electronics Company, which was responsible for managing the Natanz nuclear enrichment facility...and was involved in purchasing specialized equipment."
